Nigerians Are Committed to Democracy, But the Leaders Are Not -Ibrahim

The leaders are more committed to the acquisition of power and the use of power for self-aggrandisement than to governance.

Expecting the most corrupt fellow in Nigeria to punish corrupt officials in his government is like expecting a fish to fly

[@CollinsEnuwe]

Fish can fly if you don't know

[@kizitoaugustine4084]

I salute you senior Fellow, for your objective analysis as always

[@ObjectiveObserver-xh4vk]

Very clearly said, Prof. Tinubu and his government are into 99% politics, 1% governance. Expect nothing else from them .😂

[@mbaetea1060]

No corrupt leader(s) like the ones in Nigeria can effectively fight corruption and unfortunately, other leaders outside the political class are complicitly the ones who perpetuate the political leaders.

[@wisecrack4645]

Nigerians need to get it right! Nigerian politicians are not incompetent. They are highly competent. Competent in carrying out their own agenda and they have been highly successful. Labelling them incompetent is based on the erroneous assumption that they set out in the first place to work for YOU. No! They work for THEMSELVES and they have become world class at it! The sooner Nigerians understand this, the better for them.

[@peteshaddy]

The problem is actually we as a people. We keep reinforcing failures and expect any different. The fact that the people are now the ones constantly suggesting solutions to the government shows the level of incompetence..speaks volumes.

[@ajikeomooba87]

Will spoken, Prof!

[@kelechukwuanozyk7605]

Peter Obi saw all these problems in 2022 and told Nigerians the consequences of not electing him. Obi wss the only solution but this professor supported Tinubu. Now his eyes are clear

[@godspowerokeleke1655]

Nigeria have great people with honesty. It's unfortunate that we allowed those who should be in jail leading us an It's time for all well meaning Nigerians to brave up to fight against evil leaders destroying our lovely and blessed country.

[@el-sig2249]

Is it not amazing that someone can talk about the current problems of this country and not start with the insecurity. Everything hinges on security!

[@oviegrantdigbori9659]

Keep speaking Sir

[@patrick-vt8uw]

Is time know to bring all Africa together

[@enoskennedy1120]

Thank God we still have people like you in Nigeria

[@mikolowiskamikolowiska4993]

Why? They always talk but never do

[@nankesi1623]

Thank you Prof

[@chel-xu3re]

You all will cry. Na turn by turn. Unless you people all come out and join the youths to protest 😢😢😢😢

[@mikolowiskamikolowiska4993]

What have protest ever achieved

[@patrick-vt8uw]

Gavmen of Africa need to came together to talk

[@christianben2940]

Sir, your analysis of Tinubu in Lagos as governor is wrong. Tinubu did nothing but tax the innocent to gather wealth for himself. During Tinubu tenure as governor in Lagos, open rickety vehicles were used to collect refuse. So what is this thing that Tinubu achieved in Lagos that is so invicible

[@nankesi1623]

Lol. Is it possible to jail one's self? That yardstick now is no longer competence but how audacious and the ability to deliver your constituency by any means during election.

[@chel-xu3re]

Prof , a thief will never punish a thief, rather they share their Loot

[@patrick-vt8uw]

I really really don't no what is African people ar thinking

[@patrick-vt8uw]

Your president is telling the world that Africa is rich Africa is rich but but they're ledars is rich

[@patrick-vt8uw]

I need to tell African people don't go for Alison's nonono

[@patrick-vt8uw]

All African ledars ar rich

[@naija_crackribs659]

This northerners want to give the Igbos Biafra before they will calm down! Just imagine how this man denigrated Jonathan but when he got to Buhari he simply just said was he was worse. He could have also say..The military general with ordinary school certificate became even more worse. Northerners be calming down ooo, the dubai you people are building in your head cannot be achieved with the mindsets you guys have. Infact the North has ruled this country more than any other region but yet that same region is the poorest in every standard of living.
